How to Find API Connection in Screaming Frog

Use this interactive demo to learn how to locate and set up API Access in Screaming Frog.

Quick summary

Screaming Frog's API Access feature lets you connect external accounts — such as Google Analytics — directly within the tool's Configuration menu, enabling richer data integration for SEO audits. This step-by-step walkthrough shows exactly how to find the API connection settings and link a new account in just a few clicks.


Steps

  1. Click on Configuration in the top menu bar, then look for API Access in the dropdown menu.
  2. Click "Connect a New Account" to proceed with adding an API connection.
  3. Select the desired account, property, view, and segments you want to connect under the Account section.
  4. Click "OK" to complete the API connection setup.

📌 Why this matters

Connecting external data sources via the Screaming Frog API Access feature allows SEO professionals to enrich their crawl data with metrics from platforms like Google Analytics, delivering deeper, more actionable site audits in a single workflow. Without this integration, teams must manually cross-reference data across multiple tools, wasting time and increasing the risk of missed insights. By configuring API connections directly inside Screaming Frog's Configuration menu, users can map account properties and segments to their crawl projects instantly. This makes Screaming Frog a more powerful, centralized hub for technical SEO analysis and reporting.
